Consider the following results for two independent random samples taken from two populations.

Sample 1 Sample 2
n1=50 n2=35
x¯1=13.6 x¯2=11.6
σ1=2.2 σ2=3.0

Required:
a. What is the point estimate of the difference between the two population means?
b. Provide a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.
c. Provide a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 2

b. The 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (1.02, 2.98).

c. The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (0.83, 3.17).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before solving this question, we need to understand the central limit theorem and the subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Sample 1:

[tex]\mu_1 = 13.6, s_1 = \frac{2.2}{\sqrt{50}} = 0.3111[/tex]

Sample 2:

[tex]\mu_2 = 11.6, s_2 = \frac{3}{\sqrt{35}} = 0.5071[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]\mu = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 13.6 - 11.6 = 2[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.3111^2+0.5071^2} = 0.595[/tex]

a. What is the point estimate of the difference between the two population means?

Sample difference, so [tex]\mu = 2[/tex]

b. Provide a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.05[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.05 = 0.95[/tex], so Z = 1.645.

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = zs = 1.645(0.595) = 0.98[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 2 - 0.98 = 1.02

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2 + 0.98 = 2.98

The 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (1.02, 2.98).

c. Provide a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.

Following the same logic as b., we have that [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex]. So

[tex]M = zs = 1.96(0.595) = 1.17[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 2 - 1.17 = 0.83

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2 + 1.17 = 3.17

The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (0.83, 3.17).

Step-by-step explanation:

12 -4x-5x = 39

Combine like terms

12 - 9x = 39

Subtract 12 from each side

12-9x-12 = 39-12

-9x = 27

Divide by -9

-9x/-9 = 27/-9

x = -3

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

12 - 4x - 5x = 39

Combine like terms

12 - 9x = 39

Subtract 12 from both sides

12 - 12 - 9x = 39 - 12

-9x = 27

Divide both sides by -9

I’d personally say either A or C, and here’s why: with B and D, you don’t know what will change it, or make it go from a linear rate of change to exponential for B, and for D it’s more of a quadratic than a linear. It’s for that same reasoning that I’d hesitate to say A over C: there are other factors other than strictly the number of tickets sold and the number of minutes pre-football game. C, with the grapes, on the other hand, is a linear one that will always changeable depending on weight of the grapes.

The circle graph above shows the distribution of utility expenses for the Hierra family last year. If the family’s total utility expenses last year were $3,600, what were their expensive go water and sewer.
Water and sewer=X%
Electric=30%
Heating and gas=50%

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - $720 or 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total expense = 3600

Electric=30%

Heating and gas=50%

Water and sewer=X%

Solution:

For electric: 3600*30/100 = 1080

for heating and gas: 3600*50/100 = 1800

Left money for expense of water and shower = total - (electric and heating)

= 3600-1880

= 720

Percentage of water and shower = 720*100/3600

= 20%

What is the sum of the geometric sequence 1, 3, 9, ... if there are 10 terms? (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There's a handy formula we can use to find the sum of a geometric sequence, and here it is

[tex]S_n = \frac{a_1 (1 - r^n)}{1 - r}[/tex]

The value n represents the amount of terms you want to sum in the sequence. The variable r is known as the common ratio, and a is just some constant. Let's find those values.

First lets visualize this sequence

[tex]n_1 = 1\\n_2 = 1 + 3\\n_3 = 1 + 3 + 3^2\\n_4=1+3+3^2+3^3\\...[/tex]

Okay so there's clearly a pattern here, let's write it a bit more concisely. For each n, starting at 1, we raise 3 to the (n-1) power, add it to what we had for the previous term.

[tex]S_n = \sum{3^{n-1}} = 3^{1 - 1} + 3^{2 - 1} + 3^{3-1} ...[/tex]

Our coefficients of r, and a, are already here! As you can see below, r is just 3, and a is just 1.

[tex]S_n = \sum{a*r^{n-1}}[/tex]

To finish up lets plug these coefficients in and get our sum after 10 terms.

[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]

Use the discriminant to describe the roots of each equation. Then select the best description.
7x² + 1 = 5x

Answers

Answer:

Imaginary roots

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant of a quadratic in standard form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] is given by [tex]b^2-4ac[/tex].

Given [tex]7x^2+1=5x[/tex], subtract 5x from both sides so that the quadratic is in standard form:

[tex]7x^2-5x+1=0[/tex]

Now assign variables:

[tex]a\implies 7[/tex] [tex]b\implies -5[/tex] [tex]c\implies 1[/tex]

The discriminant is therefore [tex](-5)^2-4(7)(1)=25-28=\textbf{-3}[/tex].

What does this tell us about the roots?

Recall that the discriminant is what is under the radical in the quadratic formula. The quadratic formula is used to find the solutions of a quadratic. Therefore, the solutions of this quadratic would be equal to [tex]\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{-3}}{2a}[/tex] for some [tex]b[/tex] and [tex]a[/tex]. Since the number under the radical is negative, there are no real roots to the quadratic (whenever the discriminant is negative, the are zero real solutions to the quadratic). Therefore, the quadratic has imaginary roots.

The distribution of widgets from a production line is known to be approximately normal with mean 2.7 inches and standard deviation 0.25 inches. About 95% of the distribution lies between what two values?
A. 2.45 inches and 3.2 inches
B. 2.45 inches and 2.95 inches
C. 2.2 inches and 3.2 inches
D. 1.95 inches and 3.45 inches

Answers

Option D is correct. 95% of the distribution lies between 1.9975inches and 3.4025inches.

To get the required range of values, we will have to first get the z-score for the two-tailed probability at a 95% confidence interval. According to the normal table, the required range is between -2.81 and 2.81

The formula for calculating the z-score is expressed as;

[tex]z=\frac{x-\overline x}{s}[/tex] where:

[tex]\overline x[/tex] is the mean

s is the standard deviation

z is the z-scores

Given the following

[tex]\overline x[/tex]=2.7 in

s = 0.25

if z = -2.81

[tex]-2.81=\frac{x-2.7}{0.25}\\x-2.7=-2.81*0.25\\x-2.7=-0.7025\\x=-0.7025+2.7\\x=1.9975[/tex]

Similarly:

[tex]2.81=\frac{x_2-2.7}{0.25}\\x_2-2.7=2.81*0.25\\x_2-2.7=0.7025\\x_2=0.7025+2.7\\x_2=3.4025[/tex]

Hence the 95% of the distribution lies between 1.9975inches and 3.4025inches.

In the figure, find the measure of TU⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Answers

Answer:

TU = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two secant segments that are drawn from a circle to meet at an exterior point of the circle. Thus, according to the secant secant theorem, the product of the measure of one secant segment and its external secant segment equals that of the product of the other and its external secant segment.

Thus:

VU*TU = VW*BW

Substitute

7(x + 4) = 9(-2 + x)

7x + 28 = -18 + 9x

Collect like terms

7x - 9x = -18 - 28

-2x = -46

Divide both sides by -2

x = -46/-2

x = 23

✔️TU = x + 4

Plug in the value of x
